Stacy and I were the first up Cat in the Hat for 2008. One other team on the route, but they bailed before the last pitch. A tad chilly I suppose. Little surprised why this route is so popular. Only 2 of the 6 were real pitches (we combined the first two as I assume most do) and I concur that they were real nice for the grade, 4 and 6. But I have been on much more aesthetic routes. The arete variation (can do this once you rap back down to the top of #4) is fully bolted now, feels like 5.10b. Radek's notes were excellent. His always trump any guide book. Speaking of, saw a new guide book is out for Red Rocks, a real thick one that is on REI's shelf, forget the author, but it did not look very special to me after I read a few routes I have climbed that were not previously published. Looks like she stuffed a ton of stuff in there, but not real quality particularly when you can pull this stuff off the net from "first handers" for free. Cheers.
